Ha. I believe Karen is the plaintiff. HTM says that part of why Dixie is off TV and Karen was brought back is because of the pending suit in hopes that Karen would drop it.

That's what WWE needs to do, bring in some comic writers.

There's already too many complaints about the crossovers between brands.
 
At least we might have people temporarily killed off. Plus they'd have a field day with Mysterio's costumes.
 
Who would be Dormmamu? Kane? Or would he be Pyro? Human Torch, maybe? What about CM Punk? Who'd he be? Of course, The Blob would be Broadus Clay, and Ted DiBiase and Maryse would be Sebastian Shaw and Emma Frost respectively. Beth Phoenix as She-Hulk.... and now I realized how nerdy this is of me...
 
Oh, fuck this noise. I know Jesse Custer, Saint of Killers, and Gene Snitsky Arseface.

But other than that, I got nothin' on comics. Jimmy Corrigan, perhaps.
 
I really like Bubba Ray in the main event scene. That promo he cut was really good.

Edit: And I really like Sting as champion. I know I'm in the minority on that, but that might be because I grew up watching WCW.
 
Hell you might as well hire them, Cena basically is a super hero already. Just give him a (likely denim) cape and let him do his thing.
 
Err...so Anderson pops up at the edge of the ring with the pipe after the match, they cut to commercial, then Bubba's already in the back for his post match interview.

Some really bizarre editing choices.
 
Between their editing, the way they cut to different cameras during matches and out-of-nowhere crowd shots I'm convinced TNA hired some of WCW's editors and directors. This is not a compliment.
 
Jeff Jarrett ends the show perfectly - "It's a bunch of crap". Karen's deal at the beginning went on for too long, as did many, many talking things. Gunner-Daniels was decent though and I love that it had ZERO bullshit. Perfectly clean finish - no ref bumps or anything. FINALLY, a match in TNA where someone was shown to be the better man. Sting-Ray-Anderson was boring, and Anderson's new blue with yellow-circled gear looks AWFUL. However, Bully Ray's promo afterward was tremendous, AJ's rebuttal was terrible. The glory days retread stuff was just sad - they ripped off the WM XIX bloody Vince with a pipe deal. And Anderson's SWEET NEW MONSTER TRUCK was introduced, which I thought for sure meant he was going to drive over a brand-new 1998 Lincoln Continental, or park it next to a Corvette and fill it with cement. Instead, Sting destroyed it while strolling through the parking lot sipping water.

Sting is in his 50s and doesn't need to be smashing up glass and climbing onto a slick hood to build up a fucking TV main event. The Morgan and Steiner deal was hilarious. It began with Morgan yelling, Steiner responded by playing PUTT-PUTT GOLF, and then they brawled. Morgan tried to choke him senseless with a chair. Somehow, he's a face. I think. Hogan and everyone came out for their weekly yelling session, oh and the Karen deal, she made sure to call everyone whores, skanks, sluts, and whatever else she could without getting bleeped. And that segued clunkily into a worse than usual Angelina-Velvet match because Angelina no-sold the entire thing and there's a right way to do it and a wrong way, and everything about this was the wrong way.

They're building up a Guns-Not-LAX feud to I guess make the non-Mexican Mexicans look like threats. Hernandez looks like a goof with his shorts and what appear to be white stockings. Anarquia at least looks like a caricature of a threatening Latino you'd see in a $5 Wal-Mart bin movie, Hernandez just has nothing going for him right now. Bad look, terrible talking, and he's a health risk to anyone he works with. So yeah, put him in there with a guy coming off an injury - that can't go badly at all. No Bischoff, Rob Terry, and basically no Fortune on this show. Not much of Immortal either. Joe's back for a feud with Crimson, who is apparently undefeated. I'd swear his team JUST LOST AT THE PPV TWO WEEKS AGO, but somehow that doesn't matter. At least do what TNA did when Angle beat Joe and say he's "unpinned". That's at least true, although tonight, they said he was completely undefeated until December of '06, when it was November of '06, which shouldn't be too hard to remember since it was one of the biggest matches in company history. Oh well. Abyss came out and ended it, while Joe just let the beating happen. Also, he has zero speed right now - like none. He teased the running boot into the seated chair bit and I think Hogan might've actually been able to beat him to it. At least he's not gutting people with a tribal knife. Abyss making wacky faces was easily the best part of this deal.

Karen - Then we have Miss Dressmaker - MISS FUNBAGS HERSELF JACKED UP TO HER CHIN. Is it a coincidence that you and Kurt arrived here at the same time!?

Madison - THIS ONE DOES THINK SHE’S SOMEONE SPECIAL - I’VE BEEN TELLING HER THAT FOR 3 WEEKS. I WOULDN’T PUT IT PAST HER TO LAY DOWN FOR A OLYMPIC HERO - JUST BETWEEN US, SHE’S A DIRTY SLUT! You have something to say!? (Tara flips her off) I wouldn’t put it past her to sleep with Jeff either!
Karen - Velvet, on a scale of 1 to 10 - I’m a ten, you’re a 6.5 maybe. Being every man’s dream and every woman’s nightmare - I can see where you’re coming from. You’ve gone as far as you’re ever gonna go in TNA, but if you could land yourself on the arm of Kurt Angle - IMAGINE HOW THAT WOULD CATAPULT YOU TO THE TOP. You’re at the end of your velvet rope and you’ve decided to swing on someone else’s. All you had to do was lay down, and I’VE HEARD YOU’RE GOOD AT IT!
Winter - YOU’D BETTER RING THE BELL!
Taz - Winter’s obviously doing something. Looks like she’s been putting something in Angelina’s beverages.
Taz - When Winter came here to TNA, it was almost like she had an obsession with Angelina.
Taz - Angelina’s eyes are just empty.
Taz - Angelina’s not of her own mind or body.

WHY DO I NEED A REASON!? HE’S LOOKING FOR ME!? I’M NOT A HARD MAN TO FIND! I’m here - you go tell him. SCREW HIM AND GET OUTTA HERE!

Tenay - Hogan and Bischoff’s ace in the hole - Gunner!
Tenay - Immortal’s been relying on Gunner.
Taz - Gunner has an extensive military background.
Taz - LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THIS MAN’S QUADS!
Taz - I hope Anderson had insurance with glass coverage on that custom ride, cuz he’s gonna need it.
Sting - I don’t know who had the truck out there - but your lights weren’t on, but the windows are down. ANDERSON, YOU’RE TRYING TO DERAIL ME - IT’S LIKE A BAD GAME OF HIDE AND GO SEEK. TAG, YOU’RE IT! COME OUT HERE RIGHT NOW AND WE’LL TRY TO HASH THIS OUT.
Anderson - DID YOU SMASH THE WINDOWS OUT OF MY TRUCK!?
Sting - No?
Anderson - SO YOU DIDN’T SMASH EVERY SINGLE WINDOW!?

LET’S DO IT RIGHT HERE TONIGHT ON IMPACT!
RVD - Sting, someone gives me a fair shot here and it’s you. Look, I appreciate you giving me a shot at MY title, I appreciate that. You’re a standup guy. Thank you. As much as the TNA Title means to me, and as much of a dirty player as we know this asshole is, if the networks want ratings, they’re not taking me out of contendership. I’m fine with you doing what you need to do to SHUT THIS GUY UP!
Anderson - YOU JUST GOT THE BLESSING FROM ROB-VAN-DAM! What’s it gonna be boy!? YES OR NO!?
Sting - LET’S DO IT TONIGHT - YOU AND ME FOR THE WORLD TITLE! (MIDI Child hits)
Hogan - STINGER, STINGER! You’re trying to find your way so hard out there brother, and I love how you’re using that clause the execs gave you and how you’re handing out title shots one after another - last week RVD, this week Mr. Anderson - I guess we can say you’re the greatest fighting champion we’ve ever had! AND IF A FIGHT IS WHAT YOU WANT, THEN A FIGHT IS WHAT YOU’RE GONNA GET. THAT LITTLE TITLE MATCH THAT YOU BOOKED IS NOW GONNA BE A THREE WAY BROTHER. CUZ YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO NAME YOUR OPPONENT, BUT SO DO I - ANDERSON, YOU’RE NOT WALKING OUT AS TNA CHAMPION, AND STINGER, YOU’RE DEFINTIELY NOT. CUZ IN LESS THAN AN HOUR, THE NEW TNA WORLD CHAMPION IS GONNA BE BULLY RAY BROTHER! SHOWTIME!
Joe - The impact I’ve made in this company will never be duplicated. Crimson has never been pinned or tapped - but he’s never been in the ring with me, and he’s gonna find out that when you face Joe in TNA - YOU LOSE!
Tenay - FROM JUNE OF 2005 UNTIL DECEMBER OF 2006, NO ONE IN TNA DEFEATED SAMOA JOE!
Tenay - JOE COULD BREAK THE STREAK!
One girl - MUSCLE BUSTER! MUSCLE BUSTER!

Kurt - Karen’s making an ass out of herself. She’s a moronic. Karen’s gonna meet this girl…maybe even next week. I cannot wait to see the look on Karen’s face. When she sees her, she’s gonna shit her pants!
Mickie - When I first got in this business 12 years ago, the only thing I wanted, that I truly desired - was to go down in history as the greatest women’s WRESTLER of all time. Know what I want most of all, right now? I want to dedicate this TNA Knockouts title to everyone of you! To my fans! Who have stood by me, who have loved me through it all! IT IS BECAUSE OF YOU THAT I’M STANDING HERE NOW. It is because of you that all of us can come out here night after night and live OUR dreams! IT IS YOU WHO MAKE OUR DREAMS A REALITY! Because of that, I love and thank you!
Ray - BULLY RAY - TNA WORLD CHAMPION. THAT WOULD PISS THE WRESTLING WORLD OFF! ME AS THEIR WORLD CHAMPION. AND TELL ME WHY I CAN’T DO IT!? I WOULD TRADE IN ALL 23 OF MY WORLD TAG TEAM TITLES FOR ONE TNA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE! MOSTLY BECAUSE I HAD TO TEAM WITH THAT SLACKER FOR 15 YEARS. NOW I GET TO BEAT UP AN ASSHOLE AND A GUY WITH PAINT ON HIS FACE AND GET MY MOMENT TO BE THE MAN THAT REPRESENTS THIS COMPANY. BULLY RAY - TNA WORLD CHAMPION. MY GOD, I LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT!
Anderson - LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, FROM GREEN BAY WISCONSIN! MISSTTTTEERRRR ANDERSON! ANDERSON!
Taz - He gets another shot, and he still whines.
Tenay - IT’S NOT EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS - HE WANTS A ONE ON ONE SHOT!
JB - Challenger number 1 - MR. AN-DER-SON!
(after a shot with the pipe)Ray - THAT WAS FOR HOGAN!
Ray - YOU SHOULD BE ADDRESSING ME AS TNA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. WHAT BUSINESS DID AJ HAVE TO COME TO THAT RING!? HE WASN’T IN THAT MATCH. IT WAS A 3-WAY, NOT A 4-WAY! NOW I’LL TAKE IT OUT ON AJ! You think I took it out on him before? HE COST ME THE WORLD TITLE. I WON’T BE SO NICE ANYMORE.
Guy - Didn’t you have it coming? You tried to end his career?
Ray - SO!? HE SHOWED UP AT LOCKDOWN AND GOT HIS PAYBACK! IT WASN’T GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM. HE COST ME THE TITLE AND NOW HE HAS TO SLEEP WITH ONE OPEN. NEXT TIME, NO TABLE - CONCRETE. BAD THINGS, AJ STYLES. DELIVER THE MESSAGE! Tell him that it wouldn’t be in his or his family’s best interests to show up next week. WHAT CAN HE POSSIBLY DO TO ME!? I’M A 300 POUND WRECKING MACHINE. I’M A FRICKING WARRIOR. I’VE BEEN THROUGH EVERYTHING. The golden boy in TNA is picking the right with the wrong grizzly!
AJ - HE INTENDED TO END MY CAREER! I’VE GOTTA PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE FOR MY KIDS! SEE WHAT I’M SAYING MAN!? YOU GOT KIDS, YOU KNOW!?
Steiner - Morgan, you’re division 3 - I’m division 1. I’M A WRESTLER, YOU WERE A BASKETBALL PLAYER! WHO’S AFRAID OF A BASKETBALL PLAYER!? OR BADMINTON!? NEXT WEEK MORGAN, YOUR ASS IS GONNA BE MINE. YOU’RE A SORRY SON OF A BITCH. I RAN OUT OF TIME AND I’M GONNA BEAT YOUR ASS AGAIN!
Karen - I GATHERED ALL THE TNA HOS! JEFF!
Jeff - THIS HAS GONE TOO FAR!
Karen - I’VE GOT A HIT OUT ON ME! I’M A MOM OF 5!
Velvet - HOW DARE SHE CALL ME A SLUT!? AND MY FORMER TAG TEAM PARTNER BEATS ME WITH A CHOKE! FIRST, SHE HIT ME WITH MY FINISHER ON A CHAIR - AND I FORGIVE HER! I’M TIRED OF BEING MAD ALL THE TIME AND I’M SURE YOU’RE ALL TIRED OF ME YELLING ALL THE TIME!
Jeff - THINK IN YOUR PAST!
Karen - I DON’T HAVE ANY ENEMIES - THEY’RE ALL JEALOUS BITCHES! YOU NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHO IT IS!
Jeff - IT’S A BUNCH OF CRAP!

Yeah but I'd call him Jortsman instead of Super Cena.
 
I really can't tell what WWE's doing with Ryder.

They're not ignorant to the internet. Their entire company has a HUGE presence on Twitter and FB now, so they know that Ryder's blowing up behind the scenes, yet they continue to do nothing with him..

..but on the other hand, he's probably one of their least used/lowest paid talents on the roster, but he's getting out there and making a name for himself, generating ratings and revenue via merchandise sales.

So is this a case of them ignoring fans and wanting their talent to get over on their own terms, or are they purposely keeping him off TV to get the fans to rally harder and generate more interest?
 
[quote name='Scorch']So is this a case of them ignoring fans and wanting their talent to get over on their own terms, or are they purposely keeping him off TV to get the fans to rally harder and generate more interest?[/QUOTE]

It's the former. The latter is giving them far too much credit.

IIRC current TNA producer Keith Mitchell was also a producer for WCW.
 
[quote name='TheRock88']LOL at the Ryder fact of the week. Wonder if WWE might get mad at him for pointing that out.[/QUOTE]

I have the same thought.
 
Mick Foley announced on his Twitter that he would be returning to TNA Impact at next Monday's taping in Orlando.

He actually flew to Orlando for the last tapings, but due to a miscommunication, he was not used. TNA officials mistakenly thought he would be unavailable due to his participation at the Cauliflower Alley Club yearly reunion. Foley arrived to the tapings only to be told that the script was finalized, so he could not be used on the show.

He also expressed interest in being part of The Rock's birthday celebration on Monday Night Raw this week from Miami, FL. TNA officials unbelievably approved Foley appearing on the competition's show. However, Vince McMahon was totally against using Foley, so he will not be participating.

I giggled at the last part.
 
That seemed like a nice gesture on Mick's part but he was kidding himself if he actually believed that Vince would let him on his show.
 
Here's a nice way to let someone know that they're released:

(minor spoiler on a Divas match on SmackDown tonight .. I'll spoiler it even though I know no one would care)
A match between Michelle McCool and Layla that airs on tonight’s episode of SmackDown ends in a no contest due to incessant brawling between the former tag team partners. They are eventually separated by officials.

Layla then grabs the microphone and tells McCool she’s sick of her. She challenges her to a match at Extreme Rules, with no disqualification and no count out. McCool says she will only accept the challenge if it’s a Loser Leaves SmackDown Match since she no longer has any use for her.

Though McCool announced the bout as a Loser Leaves SmackDown Match at Tuesday’s SmackDown taping in Greensboro, North Carolina, “WWE” is overdubbed in placed of “Smackdown” during the telecast, which has already aired in Australia.

Therefore, Michelle McCool vs. Layla at Extreme Rules will be a Loser Leaves WWE Match.

Bye bye, Layla (can't imagine them firing McCool, what with her being married to the Undertaker and all)
 
About Scorch's spoiler..

The rumor is McCool is leaving for good after Sunday, makes sense given how little Taker is on the road.

Thought something was off
(the dubbing)
when I saw it.
 
Re: the spoiler -
No one's getting fired - McCool's getting promoted to Raw, and 'Taker will apparently be coming back on the Raw roster as well.
 
Smackdown wasn't a bad show, as it seemed on par with the rest of the average SD shows of late. What's with the fuckin' brand t-shirts after the draft? Just in case the idiots didn't realize Sheamus was on SD now, you couldn't just say "Sheamus has been drafted to Smackdown!"? We need a fucking visual representation? FFS.
 
[quote name='basilofbkrst']Mick might not get to wish Rock happy birthday but he says on Twitter he's getting a big donation from Vince. That's something right?[/QUOTE]

God that makes for a terrible mental image.
 
[quote name='Clak']Man the divas matches aren't what they once were back in the 90s.[/QUOTE]

I think Miss USA on Tough Enough (along with a good number of the other female contestants) says it all about "Divas" in wrestling today. Its all a bunch of pretty girls who wanna do what they see on TV, and even then its tenuous. How can you say you have a passion for the business when you can't: A) name a match other than (what was it again?) Alicia Fox vs. Melina? B) start getting yourself in shape when you know you're starting a wrestling school/competition. They simply don't have the passion.

Don 't get me wrong there are female wrestlers that are in it for more than just looking pretty and the fame but they're pretty few and far between. Worse yet, none of the major companies are interested in any women other than the ones who can look good in a skimpy outfit.

Now, it remains to be seen if Awesome Kong/Kharma is the beginning of a shift in female wrestling at least for the WWE but for right now I'll stand by my assertion that the companies aren't interested in any wrestlers that aren't young and pretty.
 
Anyone remember Alundra Blayze (Debra Miceli)? That stunt with her tossing the WWF belt in the trash still cracks me up.
